ECI Will Build WiMAX Network in Denmark

ECI Will Build WiMAX Network in Denmark

July 17, 2016

It has been quite a week for ECI – coming hot on the heels of the announcement of their release of their new next-generation GPON OLT solution in Hong Kong, is the announcement that they have signed a three-year agreement with Danish utilities company ELRO, for the deployment of a nationwide WiMAX™ network across Denmark, beginning in the area of Randers.

Randers municipality is located on the Jutland peninsula in central Denmark.

It has a total population of 93,644 and is home to Denmark’s 6th largest city also called Randers with a population of 55,739.

ELRO, who are headquartered in Randers city, were granted a national WiMAX license in 2015 and will be deploying the wide area network for the provisioning of voice and broadband internet services as part of the company’s SkyLine service.

The nationwide network rollout is expected to be completed by 2018.

Joining ECI to build this advance, integrated WiMAX and transport network solution are Alvarion Ltd, provider of WiMAX and wireless broadband solutions, and Ceragon Networks, provider of high-capacity Ethernet and TDM wireless backhaul solutions.

The network will showcase a comprehensive integrated transport, WiMAX and radio wireless backhaul solution based on IP over next-generation SDH, combining ECI’s XDM® and BroadGate® Multi-Service Provisioning Platforms (MSPP), with Alvarion’s award-winning BreezeMAX® WiMAX platform based on its OPEN™ WiMAX strategy, and Ceragon’s FibeAir® microwave technology.

According to the latest available statistics Denmark has 3,720,500 Internet users, which represents 69.2% of the population.

To simplify operation, administration and maintenance (OAM), the joint network will be managed under ECI’s LightSoft® Network Manager, enabling end-to-end provisioning under a single, unified management platform.

With its unified graphical user interface, LightSoft improves efficiency by providing users with a clear picture of the entire network and available resources.
